LEAH
Leah is a female bottlenose dolphin born on November 24, 2002 at MundoMar Benidorm, Spain. Her parents are Alpha and Eduardo (?). In September 2005 she was transferred to ZooMarine Torvaianica (Rome), where other dolphins such as King, Marco, Paco and Quina were waiting for her. Leah made the ZooMarine Torvaianica recognize an important triumph in the field of reproduction on September 19, 2012, when her first daughter was born, later baptized "Thai". Five years later, on October 19, 2017, Leah gave birth to another female, as well as Thai's sister, who was named "Luna." The father of both of his daughters is an adult male named King.
How to recognize Leah
- Leah's body is very small and elegant.
- The dorsal fin, sickle-shaped, has a notch in the middle.
- Its beak has a series of white spots on the tip.
We know little about Leah's character, but we do know that she is a dolphin who tends to be very curious about people. With both of her daughters she proved to be a loving and caring mother.
